Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for changing the relative positions of sound objects contained within a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional Higher-Order Ambisonics representation of an audio scene.
- HOA Higher-order Ambisonics
- space warping For manipulating or modifying a scene's contents, space warping has been proposed, including rotation and mirroring of HOA sound fields, and modifying the dominance of specific directions:
- a problem to be solved by the invention is to facilitate the change of relative positions of sound objects contained within a HOA-based audio scene, without the need for analysing the composition of the scene. This problem is solved by the method disclosed in claim 1. An apparatus that utilises this method is disclosed in claim 2.
- the invention uses space warping for modifying the spatial content and/or the reproduction of sound-field information that has been captured or produced as a higher-order Ambisonics representation.
- Spatial warping in HOA domain represents both, a multi-step approach or, more computationally efficient, a single-step linear matrix multiplication. Different warping characteristics are feasible for 2D and 3D sound fields.
- the warping is performed in space domain without performing scene analysis or decomposition.
- Input HOA coefficients with a given order are decoded to the weights or input signals of regularly positioned (virtual) loudspeakers.
- the inventive method is suited for changing the relative positions of sound objects contained within a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional Higher-Order Ambisonics HOA representation of an audio scene, wherein an input vector A in with dimension O in determines the coefficients of a Fourier series of the input signal and an output vector A out with dimension O out determines the coefficients of a Fourier series of the correspondingly changed output signal, said method including the steps:
- the inventive apparatus is suited for changing the relative positions of sound objects contained within a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional Higher-Order Ambisonics HOA representation of an audio scene, wherein an input vector A in with dimension O in determines the coefficients of a Fourier series of the input signal and an output vector A out with dimension O out determines the coefficients of a Fourier series of the correspondingly changed output signal, said apparatus including:
- the HOA 'signal' comprises a vector A of Ambisonics coefficients for each time instant.
- a 2 ⁇ D A N - N ⁇ A N - 1 - N + 1 ... A 1 - 1 ⁇ A 0 0 ⁇ A 1 1 ... A N N T .
- a 3 ⁇ D A 0 0 ⁇ A 1 - 1 ⁇ A 1 0 ⁇ A 1 1 ⁇ A 2 - 2 ... A N N T .
- HOA representations behaves in a linear way and therefore the HOA coefficients for multiple, separate sound objects can be summed up in order to derive the HOA coefficients of the resulting sound field.
- Plain encoding of multiple sound objects from several directions can be accomplished straight-forwardly in vector algebra.
- encoding of a HOA representation can be interpreted as a space-frequency transformation because the input signals (sound objects) are spatially distributed.
- the conditions for reversibility are that the mode matrix ⁇ must be square ( 0 ⁇ 0 ) and invertible.
- the driver signals of real or virtual loudspeakers are derived that have to be applied in order to precisely play back the desired sound field as described by the input HOA coefficients.
- Such decoding depends on the number M and positions of loudspeakers.
- the three following important cases have to be distinguished (remark: these cases are simplified in the sense that they are defined via the 'number of loudspeakers', assuming that these are set up in a geometrically reasonable manner. More precisely, the definition should be done via the rank of the mode matrix of the targeted loudspeaker setup).
- the mode matching decoding principle is applied, but other decoding principles can be utilised which may lead to different decoding rules for the three scenarios.
- Fig. 1a The principle of the inventive space warping is illustrated in Fig. 1a .
- the warping is performed in space domain. Therefore, first the input HOA coefficients A in with order N in and dimension 0 in are decoded in step/stage 12 to the weights or input signals s in for regularly positioned (virtual) loudspeakers.
- a determined decoder i.e. one for which the number O warp of virtual loudspeakers is equal to or larger than the number of HOA coefficients O in .
- the order or dimension of the vector A in of HOA coefficients can easily be extended by adding in step/stage 11 zero coefficients for higher orders.
- the dimension of the target vector s in will be denoted by O warp in the sequel.
- the positions of the virtual loudspeakers are modified in the 'warp' processing according to the desired warping characteristics. That warp processing is in step/stage 14 combined with encoding the target vector s in (or s out , respectively) using mode matrix ⁇ 2 , resulting in vector A out of warped HOA coefficients with dimension O warp or, following a further processing step described below, with dimension O out .
- this (virtual) re-orientation can be compared to physically moving the loudspeakers to new positions.
- the aforementioned modification of the loudspeaker density can be countered by applying a gain function g ( ⁇ ) to the virtual loudspeaker output signals s in in weighting step/stage 13, resulting in signal s out .
- any weighting function g ( ⁇ ) can be specified.
- weighting function can be used, e.g. in order to obtain an equal power per opening angle.
- step/stage 14 the weighted virtual loudspeaker signals are warped and encoded again with the mode matrix ⁇ 2 by performing ⁇ 2 s out .
- ⁇ 2 comprises different mode vectors than ⁇ 1 , according to the warping function ⁇ ( ⁇ ).
- the result is an O warp -dimension HOA representation of the warped sound field.
- this stripping operation can be described by a windowing operation: the encoded vector ⁇ 2 s out is multiplied with a window vector w which comprises zero coefficients for the highest orders that shall be removed, which multiplication can be considered as representing a further weighting.
- a rectangular window can be applied, however, more sophisticated windows can be used as described in section 3 of M.A.
- the space warping is performed as a function of the azimuth ⁇ only. This case is quite similar to the two-dimensional case introduced above.
- Space warping has its maximum impact for sound objects on the equator, while it has the lowest impact to sound objects at the poles of the sphere.
- a free orientation of the specific warping characteristics in space is feasible by (virtually) rotating the sphere before applying the warping and reversely rotating afterwards.
- This formula can be applied in order to derive the angular distance between a point in space and another point that is by a small azimuth angle ⁇ ⁇ apart.
- ⁇ Small' means as small as feasible in practical applications but not zero, in theory the limiting value ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 0.
- the two adaptions of orders within the multi-step approach i.e. the extension of the order preceding the decoder and the stripping of HOA coefficients after encoding, can also be integrated into the transformation matrix T by removing the corresponding columns and/or lines.
- a matrix of the size O out ⁇ O in is derived which directly can be applied to the input HOA vectors.
- the computational complexity required for performing the single-step processing according to Fig. 1b is significantly lower than that required for the multi-step approach of Fig. 1a , although the single-step processing delivers perfectly identical results. In particular, it avoids distortions that could arise if the multi-step processing is performed with a lower order N warp of its interim signals (see the below section How to set the HOA orders for details).
- Rotations and mirroring of a sound field can be considered as 'simple' sub-categories of space warping.
- the special characteristic of these transforms is that the relative position of sound objects with respect to each other is not modified. This means, a sound object that has been located e.g. 30° to the right of another sound object in the original sound scene will stay 30° to right of the same sound object in the rotated sound scene. For mirroring, only the sign changes but the angular distances remain the same. Algorithms and applications for rotation and mirroring of sound field information have been explored and described e.g. in the above mentioned Barton/Gerzon and J.Daniel articles, and in M. Noisternig, A. Sontacchi, Th. Musil, R.
- all warping matrices for rotation and/or mirroring operations have the special characteristics that only coefficients of the same order n are affecting each other. Therefore these warping matrices are very sparsely populated, and the output N out can be equal to the input order N in without loosing any spatial information.
- Fig. 2 illustrates an example of space warping in the two-dimensional (circular) case.
- the warping function is shown in Fig. 2a .
- This particular warping function ⁇ ( ⁇ ) has been selected because it guarantees a 2 ⁇ -periodic warping function while it allows to modify the amount of spatial distortion with a single parameter a.
- Fig. 2c depicts the 7x25 single-step transformation warping matrix T .
- the logarithmic absolute values of individual coefficients of the matrix are indicated by the gray scale or shading types according to the attached gray scale or shading bar.
- a very useful characteristic of this particular warping matrix is that large portions of it are zero. This allows to save a lot of computational power when implementing this operation, but it is not a general rule that certain portions of a single-step transformation matrix are zero.
- Fig. 2e shows the amplitude distributions for the same sound objects, but after the warping operation has been performed.
- the beam patterns have become asymetric due to the large gradient of the Fig. 2b weighting function g( ⁇ ) for these angles.
- the warping steps introduced above are rather generic and very flexible. At least the following basic operations can be accomplished: rotation and/or mirroring along arbitrary axes and/or planes, spatial distortion with a continuous warping function, and weighting of specific directions (spatial beamforming).
- This property is essential because it allows to handle complex sound field information that comprises simultaneous contributions from different sound sources.
- the space warping transformation is not space-invariant. This means that the operation behaves differently for sound objects that are originally located at different positions on the hemisphere.
- this property is the result of the non-linearity of the warping function f( ⁇ ) , i.e. f ( ⁇ + ⁇ ) ⁇ f ( ⁇ ) + ⁇ (30) for at least some arbitrary angles ⁇ ⁇ ]0 ...2 ⁇ [.
- the transformation matrix T cannot be simply reversed by mathematical inversion.
- T normally is not square. Even a square space warping matrix will not be reversible because information that is typically spread from lower-order coefficients to higher-order coefficients will be lost (compare section How to set the HOA or ders and the example in section Example), and loosing information in an operation means that the operation cannot be reversed.
- HOA orders An important aspect to be taken into account when designing a space warping transformation are HOA orders. While, normally, the order N in of the input vectors A in are predefined by external constraints, both the order N out of the output vectors A out and the 'inner' order N warp of the actual non-linear warping operation can be assigned more or less arbitrarily. However, that both orders N in and N warp have to be chosen with care as explained below.
- the 'inner' order N warp defines the precision of the actual decoding, warping and encoding steps in the multi-step space warping processing described above.
- the order N warp should be considerably larger than both the input order N in and the output order N out . The reason for this requirement is that otherwise distortions and artifacts will be produced because the warping operation is, in general, a non-linear operation.
- FIG. 3 shows an example of the full warping matrix for the same warping function as used for the example from Fig. 2 .
- Figures 3a, 3c and 3e depict the warping functions f 1 ( ⁇ ), f 2 ( ⁇ ) and f 3 ( ⁇ ) , respectively.
- Figures 3b, 3d and 3f depict the warping matrices T 1 (dB), T 2 (dB) and T 3 (dB), respectively.
- these warping matrices have not been clipped in order to determine the warping matrix for a specific input order N in or output order N out .
- the dotted lines of the centred box within figures 3b, 3d and 3f depict the target size N out x N in of the final resulting, i.e. clipped transformation matrix. In this way the impact of non-linear distortions to the warping matrix is clearly visible.
- FIG. 3d Another scenario is shown in Fig. 3d .
- the figure shows that the extension of the distortions scales linearly with the inner order.
- the result is that the higher-order coefficients of the output of the transformation is polluted by distortion products.
- the advantage of such scaling property is that it seems possible to avoid these kind of non-linear distortions by increasing the inner order N warp accordingly.
- the reduction of the inner order N warp to the output order N out can be done by mere dropping of higher-order coefficients. This corresponds to applying a rectangular window to the HOA output vectors.
- more sophisticated bandwidth reduction techniques can be applied like those discussed in the above-mentioned M.A. Poletti article or in the above-mentioned J. Daniel article. Thereby, even more information is likely to be lost than with rectangular windowing, but superior directivity patterns can be accomplished.
- the invention can be used in different parts of an audio processing chain, e.g. recording, post production, transmission, playback.
